1
Comment on the main teachings contained in two of the following passages from the
Qur’an.
[2 x 4]
(a)
The calamity,
What is the calamity?
And what will explain to you what is the calamity?
It is the day when people will be like scattered moths,
And the mountains will be like carded wool.
Then he whose balance will be heavy
Will be in a life of pleasure.
But he whose balance will be light
Will have his home in a bottomless pit.
And what will explain to you what this is?
A fire blazing fiercely.

Say, I seek refuge with the Lord of the dawn,
From the evil of created things,
From the evil of the darkness when it overspreads,
From the evil of those who blow on knots,
And from the evil of the envious one when he practises envy.
